Crap, I passed through Chicago a few days ago (I think it was on saturday or sunday). It would have been very kool to meet up with you .

Doh, ah well. Would've been hard with my crazy schedule to do it anyways.

I haven't been around lately but my life has slowed down a bit for me to take a breather for once. Just want to say good luck to ya Steve and to your family. Have you made it to NJ yet? I really dig that DC shirt as corny as it looks.

hahahhaa. Yup, I'm in NJ. I spent my first week down in Wildwood Crest (southern tip of NJ), but now I'm back in northern Jersey.

Just wait until you see me modeling the even goofier Legendary Axe II shirt! You'll have to wait until I get a haircut, though

So Steve, 2 things, is everything all good up in NJ? And when are we going to see that shirt!

Man this is the first time I think I've ever seen anyone so happy to drive into NJ. What a dumb state. I'm like five minutes away from Red Bank so let me update you. Events you've missed: NOTHING.

Where'd you enter the state from? If you go east and take the Parkway up north I love how the toll frequency goes from once an hour to once every fifteen minutes.

Tolls every 15 minutes? Dang....

Ninja, it was even worse before I left NJ: the Parkway had tolls every few miles!!!!! It was insane. Over the last few years, they got rid of tons of tolls (but raised the cost of tolls) to makes things better, but it is still annoying. AND HEAVEN FORBID YOU TAKE MORE THAN .5 miliseconds to pay a toll. I've had folks honking at me when my coin dispenser JAMMED and I couldn't get out a friggin' dime. Yes, the stupid thing jammed on me and I couldn't get a dime out. One little, tiny, innocent dime. Ten cents. Someone even started yelling at me.

I just smiled and waved. I think it took me 30 seconds, total, to pay the toll but it felt like 30 years. Folks here are so pleasant!

OK, finding a new home and a new job are taking a lot of time. My entire family is still trying to adjust to being in "limbo" since we were uprooted from southern california.

I still haven't re-adjusted to the humidity here. It's killing me. I could never have anticipated how much it would annoy me.

My Legendary Axe T-shirt is safely packed away... somewhere. BUT FEAR NOT! As soon as I find it when I unpack (hmmmmm.... 2-3 months from now?) I will model it and post some pics

What's funny is that my youngest brother wore this shirt for a few years... only for me to steal it back from him

Well, everybody knows that North Jersey is kooler than South Jersey

I'm only 15-20 miles from NYC...

Unfortunately, I'm one of those bastards that only goes to South Jersey for little getaways (call me Mr. Benny, please). Many friends and family lived in southern Jersey over the years, but I've never called it "home", if you know what I mean. Despite this, New Jersey still kicks butt compared to 98*% of the country!
